I think we should have a compliance program and a seal for programs

Today I have received 300 virus attacks and 75 reports from broken
anti-virus software that thinks it should spam me whenever a virus joe
jobs my email address.

There should be a standard for anti-virus software that it never makes
these reports, almost none of the viruses that propagate now use a
legit sender address.

That's a good idea.  We could call the seal "SPF Aware".  Maybe we should even 
have a seal for programs that *don't* meet the standard, like "SPF Ignorant".  
That might be an even stronger incentive for software manufacturers to respect 
SPF records.
